Collage Playshop

Do you have questions that have been burning for some time without satisfactory resolution?

By playing around with tissue paper collage, we will each let our instincts guide us toward shapes and colors, which we’ll lay onto a poster board surface and brush over with a gloss medium. After we've made several pieces, we’ll read and interpret what the images are telling us. The process will include readings, short discussions, and an opportunity to share what has been discovered. The tissue paper collage method was originally developed by the late Jungian analyst, Edith Wallace.
